Wii U Gets GameCube Controller Adapter

If you’re not a fan of game pads with giant touch screens in the middle, there’s a more retro way to control the Wii U.

Nintendo has announced the GameCube Controller Adapter for the Wii U. It will allow you to plug up to four controllers from the classic Nintendo console into the new system, and the first game that will be compatible is the new Super Smash Bros. game. That will launch later this year, so expect the controller adapter to arrive around the same time.
